This may not be the best time, but I was curious about how you all would go about
selling your planes. I love my RV-10, but about a year and half ago, like some
of you, I got my CFI and my flying time as been eaten up by instruction and
has left less time for my RV-10. In addition, I am need another project as I
find I liked building as much if not more than flying. Anyway, was just curious
of your experiences. Did you use broker, lawyer, list on own, something else?
What if any advice you would have. Thanks.

Seriously, for smaller RVs & other homebuilts, I've always had decent luck
listing on Barnstormers. Reasonable prices if you include pics in the ad.
You obviously have to be prepared for a lot of tire kickers, but that's
true no matter what you're selling. I've tried to have a data sheet listing
as much about the plane as possible, and a good collection of digital pics
in addition to the ones in the ad, that you can email to anyone who
contacts you for more info.
But before even listing on a sale site, it's worth putting out feelers in
your area (flyers on airport bulletin boards, notices with the local EAA
chapter, etc). I bought my current -6 from a local guy who was using my
neighbor to do his maintenance/inspections. If the buyer knows you & your
skillset/reputation, that can help sell the plane.
I've never used a broker or lawyer; just the FAA bill of sale and maybe
the EAA liability release document, if you feel like that could be a
problem (though I probably wouldn't even sell to someone who gave
the impression that he could be a future problem). It's not total
protection, but it is an extra layer on the (remote) chance that someone
tries to come after you later. On a more expensive plane like the -10, you
can expect the buyer to want a detailed pre-buy inspection. Deciding how
much 'invasion' you'll allow, and how much time you're willing to invest
(to protect the plane) without money on the table might be the hardest call
when selling.
Don't forget that the current state of the economy has a huge effect on
saleability of an a/c. When times are good, stuff sells pretty quickly,
but during economic downturns, they can be on the market a long time unless
you're willing to take a beating on the price.
